The bartender was really rude. I asked for a Bloody Mary and he said "really?" Even though it wasn't busy and they were closing in 3 hours. And they add a 25% tip at the end without telling you. Horrible experience read more

No one will actually serve you even if you ask politely. They force you to order online and enter your email and phone number just to get a drink. read more

This restaurant is located near gate F24 at PHL. When you walk in here it feels like you left the airport. The bar curves all the way around the corner so there is plenty of seating. There's a wide selection so you are bound to find your favorites here. You can revive your devices using the outlets easily accessible for charging and there's enough for each customer to charge two devices! The staff - depends on who you get. Some friendly and helpful, some not so much. They recommended the spicy ceasar salad with steak. Decided to order the avocado bacon and lettuce sandwich too. Glad I did! The salad was a good size to share with an awesome dressing and the sandwich had a perfectly ripe avocado yummmmm! Granted this is the only sit down restaurant and bar in this terminal, so there are not many options - but I would be glad to have another flight out of terminal F again. Looking forward to another stop at Revive! read more

Decided to grab a bite to eat and get something to drink while waiting 4hrs for my flight home. Food was hood service was great but now 4 days later they still have a hold on my credit card for the original tab. The tab with the tip has already been taken from my account. This is ridiculous holding my money hostage! read more

I fly a lot but not usually out of Terminal F so I was a 1st timer here. All I wanted was a drink and a place to sit while I waited out a flight delay. This place is quite new and the first thing I noticed was the power outlets all along the bar. This should be required for every airport bar! Virtually every person I saw sitting at the bar smiled when they saw them. MUCH APPRECIATED! My drinks were typical airport prices and my bartender was friendly. No problems with customer service. They got the job done so three stars from me. read more

This place is awful. A twelve year old could make better. Food bad. There's three guys in the left corner of the bar with panini presses who make everything. How can you call yourself a restaurant without a stove?! No appetizers. I just wanted a little something but you had to order a main course (read sandwich or salad). No french fries, chips only. The cheesesteak had pour on cheese, the onions and mushrooms were raw. I guess that happens when there is no stove with saute pan. There aren't even burgers on the menu. The decor looks like an kindercare with bright colors and plastic chairs. Music great. Good liquor and beer selection. Only a few cheap wine to choose from. I feel like a hostage here since its the only bar and sit down restaurant in terminal F. Ugh...almost makes u never want to fly out of terminal F ever again. I feel sorry for people with flight delays. This is not the place to hang. read more

Not bad for airport food and very fast service. I had the arugula salad with chicken. It was large and filling. Kind of pricey, but expected for an airport. The wine tasted a little watered down, but it was the only bar in terminal F and I needed a drink, so whatever. Compared to places outside an airport it wouldn't get 3 stars, but it's one of the better airport placed I have been too lately. read more

A really nice surprise in Terminal F at PHL. I ordered the chips and house made salsa and the waitress made sure I knew it was a salsa verde. I was so pleased when it arrived with Philly appropriate red, white and blue chips and this bright green, brightly flavored salsa. It was so fresh and brimming with tomatillo, cilantro, jalapenos and lime and it pleased this palate. For the main course I chose the carne asada tacos. Two soft shell beauties arrived filled with tender meat and adorned with cheese, thinly sliced radish and dotted with an amazing sauce. I sat down at re:vive and was quickly re:freshed and re:fueled and if my travels bring me back through Philly I will re:turn. Attentive service by staff and management was appreciated. read more

worst bar in the airport. bartender was rude. cleaning bar , tossing chairs around. skip this one!

The WORST f*n service I've ever had. Don't get the lady server. I expect shit service at the airport, but jesus christ this was bad. Order a double jack on the rocks, get a jack and coke with 3 melted ice cubes. Ask for menu? Aint happening. Need another round? Go ask the bartender; she was hustling. Need to pay your tab? Had to go to the chick at the computer to wait 5mins for my tab and she swiped and tapped in new table numbers. She must be doing someone a favor and covering a shift because if she was at a restaurant outside of the airport I'd have more words for her or the manager. Avoid this place and being your own alcohol in the little bottles if you want a buzz. read more

You are in the Philadelphia airport and need a beer? This is the place to go for half way decent beer. They do often seem to be understaffed but I would think an airport is difficult to predict when people are going to come in and hang out. The best beer selection in the airport, unfortunately I'm all caught up on them. read more

Get the Cubano. It is authentic! I was so surprised to find such a gem at the airport. I would come back here in a heart beat. I don't understand why their star rating is so low. The waitress said that people usually get the chicken tacos but anything with pork is better. Clearly people aren't ordering the exciting stuff because the cubano is amazing. It is also large!! The best bang for your buck at the airport!! read more

Between being skeptical about the previous reviews and simply excited about a food option in Terminal F, I braved it today. I fly roughly 150 flights a year and Philly is my home airport. I'm here a couple times a week to eat. My usual place is Cibo Bistro in Terminal B. The music was good and the atmosphere seemed fun. The hostess seated me at my table with a menu. It took a full 15 minutes for the waitress to come over to take my order. Which allowed me to watch the inner operations. First, let's begin with there's no kitchen. It's a long bar with a little food station tucked into the corner. One guy toasts the bread, while the other one piles on the sandwich contents and the whole thing goes into a big convection microwave (similar to what Starbucks and Courtyard's bistro use for their food). Then a small pile of greens is placed on the corner of the plate with the sandwich. Then the now freshly prepared plate goes up onto a bar mat next to a handful of glasses the previous waitress dropped for the bartender. It's not just the clean food and dirty glasses that rest together on the bar mat. All the outgoing beers, wine and cocktails sit on this same mat as well as all their garnishes. On repeated occasions I watched the three all come in contact with one another -- the fresh food, a cold beer and someone's dirty straw. Finally the waitress came over. No greeting, just a what to drink and are you ready to order food. I ordered the chicken panini and a glass of Shiraz. The food took another 15 minutes to come out. I watched the plates the entire time going up onto the dirty bar mat. I watched mine and thankfully it didn't come in contact with anything before it made it to me. The salad was meh, the dressing was about half of the quantity needed for a salad that size. The "chicken panini" was simply two pieces of Texas Toast, a precooked chicken breast, two little strips of bacon, an unknown sauce and green apple slivers. It was terrible. When I was done I sat for about 5 minutes until the waitress offered my check. When she brought it to me, I asked her about dirty glasses and plates on the bar mat with fresh food going out. She said they do it all the time. If you have no other option, enjoy a glass of wine, cocktail or beer here but hope it didn't touch a dirty dish on its way to you and at all costs, avoid the food. read more

Bought two bottles of Troegs Pilsner. The Bill was $21. I actually thought I was given the wrong check. Enough has been said.

This place gets four stars for an airport resturant. I had the Philly Cheese steak and it exceeded expectations. The service was quick and I liked that there were power outlets on the bar. I was able to eat work and charge my phone. read more

Yuk...0 stars if I could. I stopped in for breakfast due to the lack of offerings in this airport wing. Never ever again. Ordered an American cheese omelette. How hard can that be? Came to the table and looked like a crepe. Had to send back the first one because it had onions in it. Second one I took 1 bite and called the waitress over. Asked if these were real eggs and she was polite enough to look me in the eye and say they are frozen eggs because they cannot cook anything in the restaurant...no stove or oven. The English muffin I ordered toasted...came back limp...obviously microwaved where. They also micro bacon as it tasted like bacon. Coffee was terrible and mug had coffee stains on the lip. Waitress was very good...not her fault..felt bad and even though the experience was terrible did not take it out on her tip. Give them credit for not charging me for the omelette but definitely not a reason to go back. Looked like they had a great assortment of beer and spirits...so maybe they should stick to serving alcohol and chips. Don't think I ever rated something a 1... But sorry owners you need to really understand what you can do and what you can't do without a stove or oven and stop trying to get over on your patrons because in the long run they will never come back with this type of food. read more

Had a connecting flight so I got some food here. Nice looking bar/restaurant for an airport. They have TVs to watch games. They got my order wrong. I wanted a steak quesadilla and was given two steak tacos instead. I got it to go and didnt open it until right before I was about to board so I couldn't exchange it. I still ate the tacos and they were actually really good. Just disappointed that they got the order wrong. read more

Mr manager please get a station for your hostess and a sign. It is awkward walking up to the restaurant because you dont know if your to wait to be seated or its self service. When she seats someone, the next guests that walk up are confused since no one is here to greet them. The caesar salad was big but plain. Lots of lettuce and that's about it. Not much dressing or anything else. I added chicken thank god or I would have bagged it for a homeless rabbit. The service is terrible. I waited to order so long I ordered my drinks and food at the same time. Then I had to flag the waitress down to get my check. And now I am still waiting. Unfortunately it's the only restaurant in the F concourse. Maybe opt for a pre made sandwich next door. read more

With a bland and limited menu and agonizing slow service, Revive is everything that an airport restaurant should not be. With the limited menu the item should at least be tasty and I had to eat here at least seven times while traveling. I could almost live with the land overpriced food work not for the waitstaff At my last visit I nearly had to beat down the server to even get a menu. Then my waiter failed to bring me my ice tea. She then failed to bring sugar and gave me a pained look when I asked for it. She also brought me a glass of hot tea without ice so I had to get a glass of ice to chill the tea. Then came the blend Cesar with almost no dressing. I asked for an additional side dressing which required a lengthy trip to Nepal by the waitress. After that, it was almost too late for me to even eat the mail Neil and catch my plane. Despite most multiple requests to expedite my bill and giving the waitress my credit card, I had to stand next to her at her station to physically make her run the card so I could catch my plane. Meanwhile the greeter out front of the restaurant did absolutely nothing. There seem to be enough waitstaff on hand so I'm not sure whether they were new incompetent or just unmotivated. I have eaten here at least 5 times as it is the only sit down choice in Terminal F. I can't wait until the new food court opens up in terminal F with more options. There's so many other good options in the other terminals I look forward to having the same choices. But stay away from this place read more

No menu provided, no food available, and the bartender couldn't even tell me what drinks he could make with the ingredients on hand. Basically just beer and straight liquor was available from what I could understand. And the few things they do have are extremely overpriced for the quality. read more

I am here often as I travel to Philly alot. There food is hit or miss. Some items on the menu are great (their burgers and breakfast sausage) and some are bland (their cheesesteak and cheesesteak omelet, which is kind of sad since it IS a PHIL airport restaurant). Although sometimes I have a good experience with the food, and sometimes there is room for improvement, I can say that they should look more into their staff. I have rarely had good service here, and I am hear a LOT. You order via ipad screen, which is convenient (I really like that) but to me, that is also another reason the service should be better, because its less work for them. They don't even have to take your order. I sat here the other day (close to the bar) and heard 3-4 20ish year old waitresses complaining, and talking about the customers, and gossiping about the other staff. It was the ENTIRE time I was there (at least an hour, they didnt stop). They all had a story about one of their customers that irritated them, and the customers were there at that moment. Immature and rude staff. I would suggest some training and management oversight here. read more

I stopped in here for a quick bite and developed a true liking to the environment. Yes, the prices are high, however, it is an airport. I ordered the Pinot Grigio and Enchilada. The wine was excellent and the enchilada was tasty. I appreciate the hookups for electronic devices at the bar! The staff was very friendly and attentive. I will most likely stop here again when I have a layover in Terminal F. read more

One of the best salads I've eaten in quite some time! Try the chopped salad! Terrific dressing! Done right!

I recently traveled thru Philadelphia Airport on my way to New York, and stopped for nachos in the airport hub. First, the nachos I received were burnt and stuck to the container it was served in, so I only was able to eat half. I ordered it with chicken which was not very tasty at all. Also, the cheese was very greasy, and, needless to say, I ended up with a bad stomach ache for two days after. Terrible food and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Second, just an FYI, the waitress, although very polite, never once smiled. read more

Should have seen it coming when I didn't get a greeting from the bartender other than "what do you want"...5 people at the bar and she couldn't keep up, but I know that she is having a birthday party tonight at her parents house...I had hours to kill and wanted a few brews but wasn't gonna happen here. Pay the check and not even a thanks or kiss my ass. read more

Our breakfast at Revive was okay, given that it was airport food. If this restaurant was anywhere else it would be a two star experience, but it's so hard to get a decent meal in most airport terminals that my expectations were low. And they were fully met. read more

Horrible waitress. Delivers my beer in a can without a cup - never experienced that ever until now. Took her 20 minutes to ask what I wanted to order - and by that time I just wanted to leave. Paid with no tip. read more

It's pretty basic and nothing terribly fancy, but at least they have real human beings doing the service. I had a wonderful pale ale called Yards, something local which I enjoyed. Heather the bartender was awesome. The place next-door called local tavern with all their crazy, hectic advertising and iPads at every station was a total fail. Glad I came to revive. read more

Horrible service. We had to call over waitress to get her to take the order. Soda is flat. I was with 2 other people and needed to slit check (due to paying with business credit card). One order was brought out and have been waiting 15 mins for other meals to arrive. Not very busy right now. Probably should have walked away when we asked the table next to us if we needed to walk up to counter to place order and they replied no, but you're going to have to flag the waitress down. Yikes!!! read more

Fresh and delicious with phenomenal service. Really a gem. My salad was made as I ordered it. The lettuce freshly cut, the chicken freshly chopped. And the service is with a smile and accurate. The experienced really turned around an otherwise tough travel day! read more
